1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

According to the literature, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs)-including myocardial infarction, stroke, and venous thromboembolism (VTE)-are among the leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Evidence suggests that CVDs share common risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms. Similar to the Mosaic Theory of Hypertension proposed by Irvine Page in 1949, the pathophysiology of VTE is multifactorial, involving multiple interacting processes. The concept of immunothrombosis, introduced by Engelmann and Massberg in 2009, describes the interplay between the immune system and thrombosis. Both thrombosis and hemostasis share core mechanisms, including platelet activation and fibrin formation. Additionally, immune mediators-such as monocytes, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), lymphocytes, selectins, and various molecular factors-play a critical role in thrombus formation. This review highlights inflammation as a key risk factor for pulmonary embolism (APE). Immunity is central to the complex interactions among the coagulation cascade, platelets, endothelium, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and genetic factors. Specifically, we examine the roles of the endothelium, immune cells, and microRNAs (miRNAs) in the pathophysiology of APE and explore potential therapeutic targets. This review aims to elucidate the roles of the endothelium, immune cells, and miRNAs in the pathophysiology of APE and explore potential future perspective.
